8mm headspace

[sharkman]

I have a 1938 K98 that I want to check headspace on. After reading this http://www.forsterproducts.com/store.asp?pid=26986 I'm wondering which gages to get. It seems reasonable to get the older 20 48' set. Anyone know for certain which gages I should get? Thanks

If thats an original barrel you are likely safe with the older gauges, but i think the recomendation of a chamber cast might be a good idea. Why were you getting gauges? Just to have or for one particular project?
